    Through Former Rep Dana Rohrabacher as an intimary. What this shows us, is that despite how extensive the Mueller probe was, it couldn't have covered everything including these possible communications. Which in my view certainly revive the Russian Coordination. Why else would Trump STILL care about denying whether or not the Russians hacked?

    This leads several questions for me: Where's Rohrabacher? We need this dude cross examined TODAY. We also need Trump cross examined, under oath and to get an actual verification of the truth.

    What I don’t get, is assange already did this. He already denied it was Russia. Did trump renege on the deal?

    From the link in the OP:

    In 2018, Rohrabacher told The Intercept that he had been blocked from discussing the plan with the president because Kelly and other White House staffers were scared it would look like collusion.

    “What is preventing me from talking to Trump about this is the existence of a special prosecutor,” Rohrabacher told The Intercept. “Not only Kelly, but others are worried if I say one word to Trump about Russia, that it would appear to out-of-control prosecutors that that is where the collusion is.”

    I don't believe for a minute that Russia was behind it. We all know what happened... a Bernie supporter got mad at the DNC and sent the emails to wiki.

    Russia hacked the DNC is what the DNC paid clownstrike to say.

    The White House Press secretary responded by disputing the notion that Trump knows Rohrabacher...

    White House press secretary Stephanie Grisham on Wednesday denied the account.

    “The President barely knows Dana Rohrabacher other than he’s an ex-congressman. He’s never spoken to him on this subject or almost any subject. It is is a complete fabrication and a total lie. This is probably another never ending hoax and total lie from the DNC,” Grisham said in a statement.

    And we already know how many times Trump has denied ever knowing somebody, but eventually the pictures, videos, and audio say otherwise.

    Liars are gonna lie.

    I gave somewhat of a silver of doubt because politics is politics in this era, but no longer. I need absolute verification, I need statements and I need them to be factual. I'm tired of being swayed by "report said this" or "report said that". Put up or shut up. And if put up means he's a traitor, then I'm more than fine with removing a traitor from OUR American WH. It doesn't belong to anyone but Americans for America.

    This Australian Link is similar to the links already posted.

    https://www.abc.net.au/news/2020-02...-assange-presidential-pardon-alleged/11982676

    I too want to get right to the bottom of this. Posters here may well be aware that as far as I am concerned Assange is a narcissist who should have his day in a US Court. But what he did, is nothing compared to what Trump did IF this blokes story is true. This will be the second time allegations have emerged that Trump is willing to sell out on American security interests to benefit his own personal political position.

    They are still trying to bury the seth rich murder. Assange has said it wasn't Russians so where's his pardon?

    No, it will be hearsay upon hearsay with respect to Trump. But, it might winkle out something.

    Rohrabacher gave a response that effectively confirmed the information, however it would appear Assange's lawyer either purposefully or unintentionally inflated a few things(well, according to Rohrabacher.) At no time did he collaborate with the President, however he did indeed give an "offer" that, if we believe his version of events, he's not even in the legal position to give!

    What compelled Rohrabacher as a rogue agent to act? He says that such information would be valuable to our country(and I agree as to ALL testimony being valuable, at this point.). But that still doesn't explain how he felt empowered to give an offer that then Gen Kelly refused to give to the President(IE: Rendering the matter moot.)

    Well, that ends that matter. No evidence of any Trump involvement.

    This is one more ridiculous claim by Assange with no proof behind it whatsoever, how exactly would Assange be able to cover up anything?
    Stop grasping at straws, they're plastic.
